[0014] As used herein, "premature translation termination" refers to the result of a mutation that changes a codon corresponding to an amino acid to a stop codon.
[0015] As used herein, "nonsense-mediated mRNA decay" refers to any mechanism that mediates the decay of mRNAs containing a premature translation termination codon. In a particular embodiment, the nonsense-mediated mRNA decay results from a nonsense mutation of DNA.
[0016] As used herein, a "premature termination codon" or "premature stop codon"
refers to the occurrence of a stop codon where a codon corresponding to an amino acid should be.
refers to the occurrence of a stop codon where a codon corresponding to an amino acid should be.
[0017] As used herein, a "nonsense mutation" is a point mutation changing a codon corresponding to an amino acid to a stop codon. In a particular embodiment, the nonsense mutation is a mutation that occurs in DNA and is then transcribed into mRNA.
[0018] As used herein, "nonsense suppression" refers to the inhibition or suppression of premature translation termination and/or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. In a particular embodiment, the mRNA decay results from a nonsense mutation of DNA.

5.2 Example 2:Ora1 Treatment of Nonsense-Mutation-Mediated Cystic Fibrosis
[0088] The present example sets forth an illustrative dosing regimen useful for the treatment of nonsense-mutation-mediated Cystic Fibrosis.
[0089] 3-[5-(2-Fluoro-phenyl)-[1,2,4]oxadiazol-3-yl]-benzoic acid or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate or hydrate thereof is provided as a vanilla-flavored powder for suspension. The drug is manufactured under current Good Manufacturing Practice conditions (cGMP). The formulation can include binding and suspending agents, surfactants, and various minor excipients that aid in the manufacturing process. The mixture can be packaged in 40 mL plastic (high-density polyethylene [HDPE]) bottles sealed with a foil seal and a white plastic, childproof cap. Each bottle can contain 125, 250 or 1000 mg of the drug substance, which is 25.0% of the total formulation weight.
Alternatively, the mixture can be provided in a sachet formulation, such as set forth in Example 6. Excipients (and their proportions of the total formulation weight) include a suspending agent (Litesse Ultra [refined polydextrose] - 25.7%), a binding agent that can also provide taste-masking (mannitol - 25.0%), surfactant agents (polyethylene glycol 3350 -12.8% and Lutrol micro F127 [poloxamer 407 powder] - 3.7%), a disintegrant (crospovidone -5.0%), and other excipients, each less than 2% (hydroxyethyl cellulose, vanilla flavor, magnesium stearate [non-bovine], and colloidal silica) can be present. Bottle labels indicate the identity of the drug substance, the lot number, the amount of the drug substance, and the storage conditions (e.g., room temperature or refrigeration at 5 to 8 C).
Alternatively, the mixture can be provided in a sachet formulation, such as set forth in Example 6. Excipients (and their proportions of the total formulation weight) include a suspending agent (Litesse Ultra [refined polydextrose] - 25.7%), a binding agent that can also provide taste-masking (mannitol - 25.0%), surfactant agents (polyethylene glycol 3350 -12.8% and Lutrol micro F127 [poloxamer 407 powder] - 3.7%), a disintegrant (crospovidone -5.0%), and other excipients, each less than 2% (hydroxyethyl cellulose, vanilla flavor, magnesium stearate [non-bovine], and colloidal silica) can be present. Bottle labels indicate the identity of the drug substance, the lot number, the amount of the drug substance, and the storage conditions (e.g., room temperature or refrigeration at 5 to 8 C).
[0090] Dosing of the drug substance is based on milligrams of drug per kilogram of patient body weight. The dose of the drug substance can be rounded to be consistent with the available bottle sizes. The dosing scheme ensures that the total actual dose given is never <50 mg below or >250 mg above the intended dose (i.e., is always within 5 mg/kg of the assigned dose level). For example, a patient weighing 40 kg being treated with the 4 mg/kg dose would have a calculated dose of 160 mg. This patient would receive one 250 mg bottle (250 mg total) or 6.25 mg/kg/dose. The same patient when treated with the 8 mg/kg dose in the evening would have a calculated dose of 320 mg and would receive two 250 mg bottles (500 mg total) or 12.5 mg/lcg. The same patient treated with the 10 mg/kg dose would have a calculated dose of 400 mg and would receive two 250 mg bottles (500 mg total) or 12.5 mg/kg. The sanle patient when treated with the 20 mg/lcg dose in the evening would have a calculated dose of 800 mg and would receive one 1000 mg bottle (1000 mg total) or 25 mg/kg.
[0091] The reconstitution and dosing of the drug product is done at room temperature.
No specific warining of the drug product is necessary before reconstitution.
The drug product can be reconstituted with any pharmaceutically acceptable solvent (e.g., water, milk, a carbonated beverage, juice, apple sauce, baby food or baby formula). For each 250 mg bottle provided, - 10 mL of water or other pharmaceutically acceptable solvent is added to achieve a concentration of about 25 mg/mL in the total volume of suspension.
For each 1000 mg bottle provided, -20 mL of water or other pharmaceutically acceptable solvent is added to achieve a concentration of about 50 mg/mL in the total volume of suspension.
Immediately after water or other pharmaceutically acceptable solvent is added to the dry study medication, the bottle(s) is capped and shaken vigorously by hand for about 60 seconds to achieve homogeneity of suspension. Although the suspension may remain in the original plastic bottle for up to 24 hours before ingestion, it is recommended that the drug be taken shortly after reconstitution. If there is a delay of more than 15 minutes between reconstitution and dosing, the bottle should be reshaken vigorously by hand for about 60 seconds.
[00921 Treatment is administered continuously for as long as necessary to a patient having or susceptible to having Cystic Fibrosis. Table 1 sets forth illustrative daily dosing regimens for 3-[5-(2-fluoro-phenyl)-[1,2,4]oxadiazol-3-yl]-benzoic acid or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate or hydrate thereof wherein administration occurs three times per day at 6-, 6-, and 12-hour intervals (e.g., -7:00 AM, -1:00 PM
and -7:00 PM) with food. In a particular embodimeiit, the patient is administered 3-[5-(2-fluoro-phenyl)-[ 1,2,4] oxadiazol-3 -yl] -benzoic acid or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate or hydrate thereof as set forth in Table 1 continuously for 14 days, followed by 14 days without treatment, followed by an additional 14 days of administration, followed by an additional 14 days without treatment. In another particular embodiment, the patient is administered 3-[5-(2-fluoro-phenyl)- [ 1,2,4] oxadiazol-3 -yl] -benzoic acid or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate or hydrate thereof as set forth in Table 1 continuously for 14 days at three daily doses of 4 mg/kg, 4 mg/lcg and 8 mg/lcg, followed by 14 days without treatment, followed by an additional 14 days of administration at three daily doses of 10 mg/kg, 10 mg/lcg and 20 mg/kg, followed by an additional 14 days without treatment. In certain embodiments, a single daily dosing regimen set forth in Table 1 is followed each day. In other embodiments, different dosing regimens set forth in Table 1 can be followed on different days.

ideally the drug will be taken at approximately 6-, 6, and 12-hour intervals (e.g., at -7:00 AM after breakfast, -1:00 PM after lunch, and at -7:00 PM after supper). Patients ingest the drug by filling each bottle with the required amount of water or other pharmaceutically acceptable solvent, capping and shalcing each bottle for about 60 seconds, and then ingesting the contents of the required number and size of bottles per dose. The entire dose of reconstituted drug is to be taken at one time. After ingestion, each dosing bottle is half-filled with water or another pharmaceutically acceptable solvent, capped and shaken, and this water or other pharmaceutically acceptable solvent from the bottle is ingested by the patient. This rinse procedure is carried out once. In certain embodiments, the drug is provided as a sachet. In these embodiments, the appropriate amount of the drug can be weighed or measured and combined with an appropriate pharmaceutically acceptable solvent prior to administration.
5.3 Example 3:Oral Treatment of Nonsense-Mutation-Mediated Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy [0094] The present example sets forth an illustrative dosing regimen useful for the treatment of nonsense-mutation-mediated Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.
[0095] 3-[5-(2-Fluoro-phenyl)-[1,2,4]oxadiazol-3-yl]-benzoic acid or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate or hydrate thereof is provided as a vanilla-flavored powder for suspension. The drug is manufactured under current Good Manufacturing Practice conditions (cGMP). The formulation can include binding and suspending agents, surfactants, and various minor excipients that aid in the manufacturing process. The mixture can be packaged in 40 mL plastic (high-density polyethylene [HDPE]) bottles sealed with a foil seal and a white plastic, childproof cap. Each bottle can contain 125, 250 or 1000 mg of the drug substance, wliich is 25.0% of the total formulation weight.
Alternatively, the mixture can be provided in a sachet formulation, such as set forth in Example 6. Excipients (and their proportions of the total formulation weight) include a suspending agent (Litesse Ultra [refined polydextrose] - 25.7%), a binding agent that can also provide taste-masking (mannitol - 25.0%), surfactant agents (polyethylene glyco13350 -12.8% and Lutrol micro F127 [poloxamer 407 powder] - 3.7%), a disintegrant (crospovidone -5.0%), and other excipients, each less than 2% (hydroxyethyl cellulose, vanilla flavor, magnesium stearate [non-bovine], and colloidal silica) can be present. Bottle labels indicate the identity of the drug substance, the lot number, the amount of the drug substance, and the storage conditions (e.g., room temperature or refrigeration at 5 to 8 C).
[0096] Dosing of the drug is based on milligrams of drug per kilogram of patient body weight. The total voluine corresponding to the total milligram amount of drug to be administered to a patient should be calculated. For example, if a 30-kg patient is to get 4 mg/lcg, then the dose to be delivered will be 30 X 4= 120 mg. This patient should be dosed using the 250 mg dose bottle. Since each mL of the suspension in the 250 mg dose bottle contains 250/10 = 25 mg of the drug, this patient should get 120/25 =-5 mL of the suspension for each 4 mg/lcg dose). The same patient when treated with the 8 mg/kg dose in the evening would have a calculated dose of 240 mg and would receive one 250 mg bottle (10 mL suspension). These volumes of the suspensions for the respective doses should be withdrawn from the drug bottle using a plastic oral dosing syringe. For transfer of fractional volumes of <10 (for 250 ing bottle) or <20 mL (for 1000 mg bottle), the desired amount should be withdrawn from the study medication bottle into a dosing syringe of an appropriate type and size (e.g., a Baxa, Exacta-Med, calibrated, latex-free, plastic, oral dosing syringe) and dosed using the same syringe. During the same 24 hours after reconstitution, >1 dose may be taken from the same bottle of suspension; however, reconstituted drug should not be stored beyond 24 hours with the intention of using this material again for multiple doses in the same patient. If the total amount of drug to be taken in 1 day exceeds 10 mL (for 250 mg bottle) or 20 mL (for 1000 mg bottle) of the reconstituted drug, then a new bottle of drug should be used for each dosing.
[0097] The reconstitution and dosing of the drug product is done at room temperature.
No specific warming of the drug product is necessary before reconstitution.
The drug can be reconstituted with any pharmaceutically acceptable solvent (e.g., water, milk, a carbonated beverage, juice, apple sauce, baby food or baby formula). For each 250 mg bottle provided, -10 mL of water or other pharmaceutically acceptable solvent is added to achieve a concentration of about 25 mg/mL in the total volume of suspension. For each 1000 mg bottle provided, -20 mL of water or other pharmaceutically acceptable solvent is added to achieve a concentration of about 50 mg/mL in the total volume of suspension. Immediately after water or other pharmaceutically acceptable solvent is added to the dry study medication, the bottle(s) is capped and shalcen vigorously by hand for about 60 seconds to achieve homogeneity of suspension. Although the suspension may remain in the original plastic bottle for up to 24 hours before ingestion, it is recommended that the drug be talcen shortly after reconstitution. If there is a delay of more than 15 minutes between reconstitution and dosing, the bottle should be reshaken vigorously by hand for about 60 seconds.
[0098] Treatment is administered continuously for as long as necessary to a patient having or susceptible to having Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. Table 2 sets forth illustrative daily dosing regimens for 3-[5-(2-fluoro-phenyl)-[1,2,4]oxadiazol-3-yl]-benzoic acid or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate or hydrate thereof wherein administration occurs three times per day at 6-, 6-, and 12-hour intervals (e.g., -7:00 AM, -1:00 PM
and -7:00 PM) with food. In a particular embodiment, the patient is administered 3-[5-(2-fluoro-phenyl)-[1,2,4]oxadiazol-3-yl]-benzoic acid or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate or hydrate thereof in one of the dosing regimens set forth in Table 2 continuously for 28 days. In certain embodiments, a single daily dosing regimen set forth in Table 2 is followed each day. In other embodiments, different dosing regimens set forth in Table 2 can be followed on different days. In certain embodiments, the drug is provided as a sachet. In these embodiments, the appropriate amount of the drug can be weighed or measured and combined with an appropriate pharmaceutically acceptable solvent prior to administration.

5.7 Example 7: Transepithelial Potential Difference (TEPD) Assay [00106] The measurement of transepithelial potential difference (TEPD), also known as nasal potential difference, provides a sensitive evaluation of sodium and chloride transport directly in secretory epithelial cells via assessment of transepithelial bioelectric properties (Knowles et al., 1981, N. Engl. J. Med. 305(25):1489-95; Knowles et al., 1995, Hunz. Gene Ther. 6:445). TEPD is performed in each nostril using standardized techniques (Standaert et al., 2004, Ped. Pulm. 37:385-92). In the procedure, a small plastic catheter is used to assess electrical differences across the outer cell membrane of nasal mucosa cells in the nostril.
TEPD values are expressed in millivolts, or mV. A chloride conductance equal to or more electrically negative than -5.0 mV is generally considered to be in the normal range. TEPD
assessments are made on the nasal epithelium cells lining the inferior turbinate because these cells are easier to access than the respiratory epithelial cells lining the lower airways, and have been shown to have the same ion transport characteristics (Knowles et al., 1981, Ain.
Rev. Respir. Dis. 124(4):484-90). TEPD assessments can also be made on rectal epithelial cells and lower respiratory epithelial cells. Because of the role of the CFTR
protein in transporting chloride ions across cell membranes, and because of the absence of this protein, cystic fibrosis patients have an abnormal TEPD chloride conductance. As an endpoint, TEPD has the advantage that it can detect chloride transport changes that are a quantitative integration of the presence, functional activity, and apical location of the CFTR in airway cells. Furthermore, it is a direct measure of CFTR activity that is not likely to be affected by supportive or palliative treatments for CF (with the possible exception of systemically administered aminoglycoside antibiotics). Of importance is evidence that TEPD
values can correlate with the degree of pulmonary dysfunction and radiographic abnormality (Ho et al., 1997, Eur. Respir. J. 10(9):2018-22; Fajac et al., 1998, Eur. Respir. J
12(6):1295-300;
Sermet-Gaudelus et al., 2005, Am. J. Respit. Crit. Care Med. 171(9):1026-1031). In particular, TEPD assessment of isoproterenol-induced CFTR chloride activity has demonstrated better predictive value than genotype in determining FEV 1 and radiological score (Ho et al., 1997, Eur Respir J 10(9):2018-22). Under baseline conditions, TEPD-assessed chloride channel activity is very unlikely to normalize spontaneously in patients with CF; any observed improvements in TEPD-assessed chloride channel activity are expected to specifically denote pharmacological activity of CFTR-correcting therapies.
Accordingly, it has become the primary endpoint in Phase 1-2 pharmacological and gene replacement studies aimed at correcting CFTR dysfunction (Peclcham et al., 1995, AJ. Clin Sci (London). 89(3):277-84; Wilschanski et al., 2003, N. Engl. J. Med.
349(15):1433-41).
5.8 Example 8: CFTR Immunofluorescence [00107] The collection and processing of the nasal mucosal curettage from each nostril of a patient for measurement of CFTR protein by immunofluorescence and by quantification of CFTR mRNA is performed using standardized techniques (Clancy et al., 2001,4m. J.
Respir. Crit. Care Med. 163(7):1683-92; Amaral et al., 2004, J. Cyst. Fibros.
3 Suppl 2:17-23). The immunofluorescence staining of normal epithelial cells (for example, from nasal mucosal scrapings) reveals the presence of most of the CFTR protein at the apical surface. In animal models of nonsense-mutation-mediated CF or in patients with nonsense-mutation-mediated CF, CFTR staining is absent (e.g., in patients homozygous for a premature stop mutation) or is primarily observed in the perinuclear region (e.g., in patients with a AF508 mutation that prevents normal CFTR intracellular trafficking). Successful production of functional wild or non-wild type CFTR protein in both animal models and patients has been associated with reappearance of apical epithelial CFTR protein as assessed by iinmunofluorescence (Clancy et al., 2001,,4m. J. Respir. Crit. Care Med.
163(7):1683-92;
Wilschanski et al., 2003,1V. Engl. J Med. 349(15):1433-41).
5.9 Example 9: Pulmonary Function Tests [00108] Pulmonary function tests, including FEVi, FVC, and MEF25a5, are measured using standard spirometry procedures. Assessments of pulmonary function (including MEF25-75, FVC, and, particularly, FEVi) have been acknowledged as definitive clinical endpoints in patients with CF (Food and Drug Administration, 62nd Anti-Infective Drugs Advisory Committee. Discussion of NDA for tobramycin solution for inhalation (Tobi ) for the management of cystic fibrosis patients. November, 1997; Tiddens, 2002, Pediatr.
Pulmonol. 34(3): 228-31). FEVi and otlier pulmonary function testing measures have been shown to correlate with disease severity, predict morbidity in tenns of health care utilization and IV antibiotic usage, and indicate the risk of CF-related mortality (Food and Drug Administration, 62nd Anti-Infective Drugs Advisory Committee. Discussion of NDA for tobramycin solution for inhalation (Tobi ) for the management of cystic fibrosis patients. November, 1997). Pulmonary function testing is simple to administer (even in patients as young as 7 years of age), and uses standardized equipment and techniques that are widely available. Interpretation is performed using well-established nomlative equations that account for patient age, height, and gender. Improvement in FEV i has been aclcnowledged as quantitatively demonstrating meaningful clinical benefit in CF, and has served as the basis for regulatory approval of dornase alfa and inhaled tobramycin (Food and Drug Administration, 62nd Anti-Infective Drugs Advisory Committee. Discussion of NDA for tobramycin solution for inhalation (Tobi(M) for the management of cystic fibrosis patients. November, 1997).
5.10 Example 10: Phase 2 Study of 3-[5-(2-fluoro-phenyl)-[1,2,4]oxadiazol-3-yll-benzoic as an Oral Treatment for Nonsense-Mutation-Mediated Cystic Fibrosis [00109] Patients must have met all of the following conditions to be eligible for enrollment into the study:

[00142] 3-[5-(2-Fluoro-phenyl)-[1,2,4]oxadiazol-3-yl]-benzoic acid was provided in a formulation described herein. 15 patients (12 from a Phase 2 trial being conducted in Israel and 3 from a Phase 2 trial being conducted in the United States; seven patients were male and 8 were female; patients had a median age of 22 years; and all patients had multiple signs and symptoms of cystic fibrosis, including some degree of lung dysfunction) were orally administered 3-[5-(2-fluoro-phenyl)-[1,2,4]oxadiazol-3-yl]-benzoic acid according to the following 56 day schedule: administration of 3-[5-(2-fluoro-phenyl)-[1,2,4]oxadiazol-3-yl]-benzoic acid three times per day (TID) at 4 mg/lcg, 4 mg/lcg and 8 mg/1cg for 14 days, followed by no treatment for 14 days (Cycle 1, consisting of 28 days), followed by administration of 3-[5-(2-fluoro-phenyl)-[1,2,4]oxadiazol-3-yl]-benzoic acid three times per day (TID) at 10 mg/lcg, 10 mg/kg and 20 mg/lcg for 14 days, followed by no treatment for 14 days (Cycle 2, consisting of 28 days).
[00143] Clinical endpoints were evaluated using the procedures set forth above. TEPD
measurements were made prior to treatment and on days 14 and 28 of Cycle 1 and Cycle 2.
Nasal mucosal curettage was collected from each nostril of each patient prior to treatment and on days 14 and 28 of Cycle 1 and Cycle 2. Pulmonary tests, including FEV 1, FVC and MEF25_75, were measured prior to treatment, on day -1 of Cycle 2, on day 13 or 14 of Cycle 1 and day 13 or 14 of Cycle 2 in the study being conducted in Israel and the same parameters were measured prior to treatment and on day 13 or 14 of Cycle 2 in the study being conducted in the United States.
[00144] Mean change in TEPD chloride conductance. This is the average of the changes from the beginning to the end of the treatment period in TEPD chloride conductance within each study participant. For example, if the changes in TEPD chloride conductance within each of three participants were -7.0 mV, -2.0 mV and -9.0 mV, the mean change in TEPD chloride conductance among these participants would be -6.0 mV.
[00145] Percentage ofpatients with a chloride conductance response. This is the percentage of patients who demonstrated a TEPD chloride conductance response at the end of treatment with 3-[5-(2-fluoro-phenyl)-[1,2,4]oxadiazol-3-yl]-benzoic acid. For purposes of the trials, a chloride conductance response is defined as a TEPD chloride conductance improvement of at least -5 mV. For example, in a patient with a TEPD chloride conductance value of +1.0 mV at baseline and a TEPD chloride conductance value of -6.0 mV
at the end of treatment, the TEPD chloride conductance improvement would be -7.0 mV, representing a chloride conductance response.
[00146] Percentage ofpatients with improvements of TEPD chloride conductance values into the normal range. As noted above, a chloride conductance equal to or more electrically negative than -5.0 mV is generally considered to be in the normal range. As such, a patient with a TEPD chloride conductance value of +1.0 mV at baseline would be considered to have an abnormal value because the value is more electrically positive than -5.0 mV. If, at the end of treatment, that patient's TEPD chloride conductance value improved to -6.0 mV, this would represent an improvement into the normal range because the improved value is more electrically negative than -5.0 mV.
[00147] Based on patient gender, age and height, the mean FEV1 value at study entry was 66% of normal and the mean FVC value at study entry was 80% of normal.
Fourteen of the 15 patients included in the analysis had airway colonization with Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a common bacterial infection in cystic fibrosis patients that can lead to serious pneumonia. Fourteen of the 15 patients also had pancreatic insufficiency and required chronic pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy. Patients had low body weights, with a mean weight of 58.3 kg at study entry.
[00148] Table 5 presents the TEPD results for the 5 patients. For each measurement, the results are presented on a best-of-nostrils and mean-of-both-nostrils basis. Historically, results of TEPD tests have typically been presented on a best-of-nostrils basis. However, recent guidelines established by the Cystic Fibrosis Therapeutics Development Network recommend that TEPD results be presented on botli bases. Improvements in TEPD
chloride conductance in patients with different types of nonsense mutations within the CFTR gene were noted.

chloride conductance. Statistically significant results and positive trends for secondary endpoints were also observed. In particular, although the trials were not been powered to detect statistical significant changes in secondary endpoints, statistically significant iinprovements from study entry to the end of the higher-dose treatment cycle in the patients' mean FEV1a FVC and weight were observed. Table 6 presents the results. For the changes in lung function, one patient was not included because that patient did not have lung function measured at the end of the higher-dose treatment cycle.

In the 15 patients included in the interim analysis, 6 reported general improvements in well being, 6 reported decrease in cough and 10 reported decreased mucus thickness and easier clearing of mucus.
5.11 Example 11: Dystrophin, Sarcoglycan, and Dystroglycan Expression by Immunofluorescence and Western Blottin~
[00151] Biopsy of the EDB muscle and overlying skin from one foot is performed under local anesthesia and conscious sedation (in some cases, general anesthesia may be required) prior to treatment, and from the other foot on the last day of treatment. The biopsy procedure is performed using standardized techniques (Stedman, 2000, Human Gene Therapy 11:777-90). The entire muscle belly (whenever possible) is removed in the procedure. At the time of collection of the biopsy prior to treatment, the muscle specimen is divided into at least 3 fragments and the biopsy specimen collected on the last day of treatment is divided into at least 2 fragments. The biopsy specimen is placed on a telfa gauze sponge moistened with Ringer's saline. The biopsy specimen is viewed at low power under a stereo dissection microscope to establish fiber orientation. The muscle is then transected using a sharp scalpel in a cross sectional fashion (perpendicular to the orientation of the fibers) whenever possible and allowed to rest for 2 minutes to allow for the cessation of spasm. The sample is then frozen in liquid nitrogen cooled isopentane, transferred to a liquid nitrogen reservoir and held 1 inch above the liquid/vapor interface for 2 minutes of slow cooling and isopentane evaporation before immersion in the liquid nitrogen, and wrapped into precooled (in liquid nitrogen and stored on dry ice) foil labeled with the study number, site number, patient number, date, patient initials, and foot side (right foot or left foot).
[00152] All sample containers are clearly labeled in a fashion that identifies the subject and the collection date. Labels are fixed to the sample containers in a manner that prevents the label from becoming detached. Samples are shipped for analysis/culture/central review immediately after the procedure is performed. For detection of dystrophin, 3 commercially available antibodies that recognize the C-terminus, the N-terminus, and the rod domain of the protein are employed. For detection of the sarcoglycan and dystroglycan complex, commercially available antibodies against a-, (3-, y-, and S-sarcoglycan, and (3-dystroglycan are used when possible. Epifluorescence microscopy is used in the analysis;
images are captured by CCD camera, after normalization of the fluorescence intensity against a normal muscle specimen. Images are stored digitally and preserved for future review, and final evaluation at the completion of the study. Tissues are also processed for detection of dystrophin, the sarcoglycans, and (3-dystroglycan by Western blotting using the same antibodies. Microscopic images are captured and preserved for future review, and for final evaluation at the completion of the study. Remaining muscle tissue samples are preserved for confirmatory assays of mRNA and proteins involved in DMD. Immunostaining and Western blotting are employed for protein detection.
[00153] Muscle biopsies are commonly performed on DMD subjects as a component of diagnosis and as measures of therapeutic effect in the context of research studies. EDB
has been chosen because it is not an essential muscle for daily activities and therefore sampling this muscle does not have adverse functional consequence for the subject. Because it is little used, the EDB muscle is unlikely to demonstrate substantial fibrotic replacement of muscle and thus provides an appropriate tissue for detection of dystrophin production.
Sampling of the EDB muscle offers additional practical advantages because it is easy to identify, can be dissected under local anesthesia, and provides sufficient amounts of tissue to carry out the required analyses. Immunofluorescence and Western blotting are routine tests performed on muscle biopsy specimens to confirm the presence or absence of full-length dystrophin. An absence of dystrophin is viewed as confirmation of the diagnosis of DMD.
Restoration of dystrophin, with localization to the muscle membrane, has been considered a direct measure of preclinical and clinical pharmacodynamic activity (Barton-Davis, 1999, J, Clin. Invest. 104(4):375-81; Politano, 2003, Acta Myol. 22(1):15-21).
5.12 Example 12: Upper and Lower Extremity Myometry [00154] Upper and lower extremity myometry are performed using a hand-held myometer following standardized procedures (Beenaldcer, 2001, Neuromuscul.
Disord.
11(5):441-6; Hyde, 2001, Neuromuscul. Disord. 11(2):165-70). It is recommended (depending on the subject's baseline functional status) that evaluated muscle groups include hip abductors, knee extensors, elbow flexors and extensors, and hand grip.
Bilateral assessments can be done, and three measurements can be recorded from each muscle group on each side. These parameters are monitored prior to treatment, on the second to last day of treatment, and during a follow-up period after treatment. During the pre-treatment and treatment periods, the myometry procedures are performed prior to the muscle biopsy.
[00155] Myometry assessments using a hand-held dynamometer are a sensitive and reproducible measure of muscle strength in ambulatory and non-ambulatory subjects (Beenakker, 2001, Neuromuscul. Disord. 11(5):441-6; Hyde, 2001, Neuromuscul.
Disor d.
11(2):165-70). Inter-rater reliability in subjects with muscular dystrophy is high (Stuberg, 1988, Phys. Ther. 1988 68(6):977-82; Hyde, 2001, Neuromuscul. Disord.
11(2):165-70). As compared to manual muscle strength testing, myometry is a more sensitive and less complex measure of muscle function (McDonald, 1995, Am. J. Phys. Med. Rehabil. (5 Suppl):S70-92).
The test can be readily administered by the evaluator (e.g., physician or physical therapist).
5.13 Example 13: Timed Function Tests [00156] Timed function tests include time taken to stand from a supine position, time taken to walk 10 meters, and time taken to climb 4 standard-sized stairs (Mendell, 1989, N.
Engl. J. Med. 320(24):1592- 7; Griggs, 1991, Arch. Neurol. 48(4):383-8). These parameters are monitored prior to treatment, on the second to last day of treatment, and during a follow-up period after treatment. During the pre-treatment and treatment periods, the timed function tests are performed prior to the inuscle biopsy.
[00157] These tests (time taken to stand from supine position, time taken to walk 10 meters, and time taken to climb 4 standard-sized steps) provide an additional measure of functional capability in ambulatory subjects. The tests are reproducible, commonly employed, simple to administer, and have documented response to therapeutic intervention with steroids (Mendell, 1989, N. Engl. J. Med. 320(24):1592- 7; Griggs, 1991, Arch. Neurol.
48(4):383-8).
5.14 Example 14: Serum CK Levels [00158] Serum CK activity is assessed using a commercially available NADH-linked kinetic assay (Diagnostic Chemicals Ltd., Oxford, CT). Serum CK levels are measured prior to treatment, on day 1(prior to first dose), day 7, day 14, day 21, and day 27 during the treatment period, and on day 42 and day 56 after treatment. Serum CK is increased in Duchenne muscular dystrophy and therefore is a readily measurable diagnostic marker for the disease and may serve as a potential biomarlcer for the pharmacological activity of the drug (Mendell et al., 1989, New Eng. J. Med. 320(24):1592-1597).
[00159] Serum CK provides a measure of whole-body muscle integrity.
Concentrations of this enzyme in the serum are increased 50- to 100-fold in subjects with DMD and measurements of its levels are used in making an early diagnosis of the disease (Worton, The muscular dystrophies, In: Scriver C.R. , Beaudet A.L., Sly W.S., Valle D, eds.
The metabolic and molecular basis of inherited disease. 8th ed. Vol. 4. New York: McGraw-Hill, 2001:5493-523). The levels of serum CK are measured to monitor the progression of the disease and serve as a marker for muscle dainage. While exercise-induced changes introduce variability (Politano, 2003, Acta. Myol. 22(1):15-21), the marker has advantages because it can be easily, repeatedly, and frequently assessed with a widely available and reliable assay.
Prior clinical studies have shown decreases in serum CK coincident with improvements in muscle strength during treatment with steroids (Reitter, 1995, Brain Dev. 17 Suppl: 3 9-43).
5.15 Example 15: Dermal Fibroblast and Muscle Cell Culture [00160] Studies are performed on muscle tissue and skin from patients to determine whether dystrophin production in primary muscle cultures from the patients corresponds with dystrophin production in vivo. These experiments evaluate whether dermal fibroblasts from patients, wlien differentiated into muscle cells in vitro by transfection with a Myo-D-producing expression construct (Wang, 2001, Development 128: 4623-33), demonstrate dystrophin production in response to treatment. Correlations of skin cell response with clinical activity may offer an easy-to-obtain predictive test in selecting future patients for therapy or for screening new agents for the treatment of DMD. Cells are cultured as follows.
Biopsy material is stored during transport in human proliferation medium (or PBS), and on ice for longer time periods if necessary. If the tissue is not prepared within 24 hours, the material can be frozen in lzuman proliferation medium containing 10% DMSO and stored in liquid nitrogen (or dry ice). At the time the tissue is to be prepared for setting up the myoblast culture, biopsy material is washed in PBS. PBS sufficient to keep the tissue moist is added into a culture dish. The biopsy material is minced thoroughly with razor blades, toward an almost homogeneous supension. Approximately 2 ml of collegenase/dispase/CaC12 solution per gram of tissue is added and mincing is continued for several minutes (e.g. for a muscle biopsy of 5x5x5mm use 1 ml of enzyme solution). The suspension is transferred into a sterile tube and incubated at 37 C in a waterbath until the mixture is a fine slurry (e.g., about 20 to 30 minutes). The suspension is further homogenized by pipetting up and down several times during incubation. Additional resuspension cycles by pipetting up an down with a syringe can be performed if necessary. Eight mL of human proliferation medium is added to the suspension and mixed. The mixture is centrifuged for 10 minutes at 1200 rpm.
The cell pellet is resuspended in 3 ml human proliferation medium. Cells are plated into one well of a collagen-coated 6-wells plate, or, depending on the amount of material, in a T25 collagen-coated flask. Cells are cultured for 48 hrs, at 37 C and 5% COZ. Non-attached cells are removed and transfered to another collagen-coated well (as baclcup). Fresh proliferation medium is added to the first well (3 ml). The cells are cultured from the first well to confluency and until two confluent T75- flasks have been obtained. For storage, cells can be frozed from one T75 flask into 4 cryotubes witli 1 ml freezing medium. The myogenic cell content of the culture is determined by performing a desmin-staining.
Preplating of the cultures is required if the percentage of desmin-positive cells is too low.

[00171] 10. Able to provide written informed consent if>18 years of age, or written informed assent (with parental/guardian consent) if >7 years of age. If the subject is <7 years of age, parent/legal guardian consent alone will be obtained; and [00172] 11. Evidence of personally signed and dated informed consent document (assent also required for children>7 years of age) indicating that the subject/parent/legal guardian has been informed of all pertinent aspects of the trial should be followed.

[00188] 3-[5-(2-Fluoro-phenyl)-[1,2,4]oxadiazol-3-yl]-benzoic acid is provided in a formulation described herein. Treatment is administered over 28 days for each treatment cohort. An initial cohort of patients are treated daily for 28 days with 3-[5-(2-fluoro-phenyl)-[1,2,4]oxadiazol-3-yl]-benzoic acid at a given dose level (e.g., 4-, 4-, and 8-mg/kg) TID. If the initial patients tolerate the drug, then a second cohort of patients receives 3-[5-(2-fluoro-phenyl)-[1,2,4]oxadiazol-3-yl]-benzoic acid at a higher dose level (e.g., 10-, 10-, and 20-mg/lcg) TID. Thus, each patient receives a total of 84 doses of 3-[5-(2-fluoro-phenyl)-[1,2,4]oxadiazol-3-yl]-benzoic acid. After the end of 28 days of treatment, each patient is followed for an additional 28 days without treatment.
[00189] At each dose level, it is recommended that 3-[5-(2-fluoro-phenyl)-[1,2,4]oxadiazol-3-yl]-benzoic acid be taken TID at 6-, 6-, and 12-hour (:L -30 minutes) intervals. Ideally each dose is taken within -30 minutes after a meal (e.g., -7:00 AM after breakfast, -1:00 PM after lunch, and -7:00 PM after dinner). While it is realized that variations in dosing schedule may occur in the outpatient setting, it is recommended that the prescribed regimen (including dosing intervals and the relationship of dosing to meals) be followed closely on the days of PK sample collection. Clinical endpoints are evaluated using the procedures set forth above.
[00190] It will be appreciated that, although specific embodiments of the invention have been described herein for purposes of illustration, the invention described herein is not to be limited in scope by the specific embodiments herein disclosed. These embodiments are intended as illustrations of several aspects of the invention. Any equivalent embodiments are intended to be within the scope of this invention. Indeed, various modifications of the invention in addition to those shown and described herein will become apparent to those skilled in the art from the foregoing description.
No specific warining of the drug product is necessary before reconstitution.
The drug product can be reconstituted with any pharmaceutically acceptable solvent (e.g., water, milk, a carbonated beverage, juice, apple sauce, baby food or baby formula). For each 250 mg bottle provided, - 10 mL of water or other pharmaceutically acceptable solvent is added to achieve a concentration of about 25 mg/mL in the total volume of suspension.
For each 1000 mg bottle provided, -20 mL of water or other pharmaceutically acceptable solvent is added to achieve a concentration of about 50 mg/mL in the total volume of suspension.
Immediately after water or other pharmaceutically acceptable solvent is added to the dry study medication, the bottle(s) is capped and shaken vigorously by hand for about 60 seconds to achieve homogeneity of suspension. Although the suspension may remain in the original plastic bottle for up to 24 hours before ingestion, it is recommended that the drug be taken shortly after reconstitution. If there is a delay of more than 15 minutes between reconstitution and dosing, the bottle should be reshaken vigorously by hand for about 60 seconds.
[00921 Treatment is administered continuously for as long as necessary to a patient having or susceptible to having Cystic Fibrosis. Table 1 sets forth illustrative daily dosing regimens for 3-[5-(2-fluoro-phenyl)-[1,2,4]oxadiazol-3-yl]-benzoic acid or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate or hydrate thereof wherein administration occurs three times per day at 6-, 6-, and 12-hour intervals (e.g., -7:00 AM, -1:00 PM
and -7:00 PM) with food. In a particular embodimeiit, the patient is administered 3-[5-(2-fluoro-phenyl)-[ 1,2,4] oxadiazol-3 -yl] -benzoic acid or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate or hydrate thereof as set forth in Table 1 continuously for 14 days, followed by 14 days without treatment, followed by an additional 14 days of administration, followed by an additional 14 days without treatment. In another particular embodiment, the patient is administered 3-[5-(2-fluoro-phenyl)- [ 1,2,4] oxadiazol-3 -yl] -benzoic acid or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate or hydrate thereof as set forth in Table 1 continuously for 14 days at three daily doses of 4 mg/kg, 4 mg/lcg and 8 mg/lcg, followed by 14 days without treatment, followed by an additional 14 days of administration at three daily doses of 10 mg/kg, 10 mg/lcg and 20 mg/kg, followed by an additional 14 days without treatment. In certain embodiments, a single daily dosing regimen set forth in Table 1 is followed each day. In other embodiments, different dosing regimens set forth in Table 1 can be followed on different days.

ideally the drug will be taken at approximately 6-, 6, and 12-hour intervals (e.g., at -7:00 AM after breakfast, -1:00 PM after lunch, and at -7:00 PM after supper). Patients ingest the drug by filling each bottle with the required amount of water or other pharmaceutically acceptable solvent, capping and shalcing each bottle for about 60 seconds, and then ingesting the contents of the required number and size of bottles per dose. The entire dose of reconstituted drug is to be taken at one time. After ingestion, each dosing bottle is half-filled with water or another pharmaceutically acceptable solvent, capped and shaken, and this water or other pharmaceutically acceptable solvent from the bottle is ingested by the patient. This rinse procedure is carried out once. In certain embodiments, the drug is provided as a sachet. In these embodiments, the appropriate amount of the drug can be weighed or measured and combined with an appropriate pharmaceutically acceptable solvent prior to administration.
5.3 Example 3:Oral Treatment of Nonsense-Mutation-Mediated Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy [0094] The present example sets forth an illustrative dosing regimen useful for the treatment of nonsense-mutation-mediated Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.
[0095] 3-[5-(2-Fluoro-phenyl)-[1,2,4]oxadiazol-3-yl]-benzoic acid or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate or hydrate thereof is provided as a vanilla-flavored powder for suspension. The drug is manufactured under current Good Manufacturing Practice conditions (cGMP). The formulation can include binding and suspending agents, surfactants, and various minor excipients that aid in the manufacturing process. The mixture can be packaged in 40 mL plastic (high-density polyethylene [HDPE]) bottles sealed with a foil seal and a white plastic, childproof cap. Each bottle can contain 125, 250 or 1000 mg of the drug substance, wliich is 25.0% of the total formulation weight.
Alternatively, the mixture can be provided in a sachet formulation, such as set forth in Example 6. Excipients (and their proportions of the total formulation weight) include a suspending agent (Litesse Ultra [refined polydextrose] - 25.7%), a binding agent that can also provide taste-masking (mannitol - 25.0%), surfactant agents (polyethylene glyco13350 -12.8% and Lutrol micro F127 [poloxamer 407 powder] - 3.7%), a disintegrant (crospovidone -5.0%), and other excipients, each less than 2% (hydroxyethyl cellulose, vanilla flavor, magnesium stearate [non-bovine], and colloidal silica) can be present. Bottle labels indicate the identity of the drug substance, the lot number, the amount of the drug substance, and the storage conditions (e.g., room temperature or refrigeration at 5 to 8 C).
[0096] Dosing of the drug is based on milligrams of drug per kilogram of patient body weight. The total voluine corresponding to the total milligram amount of drug to be administered to a patient should be calculated. For example, if a 30-kg patient is to get 4 mg/lcg, then the dose to be delivered will be 30 X 4= 120 mg. This patient should be dosed using the 250 mg dose bottle. Since each mL of the suspension in the 250 mg dose bottle contains 250/10 = 25 mg of the drug, this patient should get 120/25 =-5 mL of the suspension for each 4 mg/lcg dose). The same patient when treated with the 8 mg/kg dose in the evening would have a calculated dose of 240 mg and would receive one 250 mg bottle (10 mL suspension). These volumes of the suspensions for the respective doses should be withdrawn from the drug bottle using a plastic oral dosing syringe. For transfer of fractional volumes of <10 (for 250 ing bottle) or <20 mL (for 1000 mg bottle), the desired amount should be withdrawn from the study medication bottle into a dosing syringe of an appropriate type and size (e.g., a Baxa, Exacta-Med, calibrated, latex-free, plastic, oral dosing syringe) and dosed using the same syringe. During the same 24 hours after reconstitution, >1 dose may be taken from the same bottle of suspension; however, reconstituted drug should not be stored beyond 24 hours with the intention of using this material again for multiple doses in the same patient. If the total amount of drug to be taken in 1 day exceeds 10 mL (for 250 mg bottle) or 20 mL (for 1000 mg bottle) of the reconstituted drug, then a new bottle of drug should be used for each dosing.
[0097] The reconstitution and dosing of the drug product is done at room temperature.
No specific warming of the drug product is necessary before reconstitution.
The drug can be reconstituted with any pharmaceutically acceptable solvent (e.g., water, milk, a carbonated beverage, juice, apple sauce, baby food or baby formula). For each 250 mg bottle provided, -10 mL of water or other pharmaceutically acceptable solvent is added to achieve a concentration of about 25 mg/mL in the total volume of suspension. For each 1000 mg bottle provided, -20 mL of water or other pharmaceutically acceptable solvent is added to achieve a concentration of about 50 mg/mL in the total volume of suspension. Immediately after water or other pharmaceutically acceptable solvent is added to the dry study medication, the bottle(s) is capped and shalcen vigorously by hand for about 60 seconds to achieve homogeneity of suspension. Although the suspension may remain in the original plastic bottle for up to 24 hours before ingestion, it is recommended that the drug be talcen shortly after reconstitution. If there is a delay of more than 15 minutes between reconstitution and dosing, the bottle should be reshaken vigorously by hand for about 60 seconds.
[0098] Treatment is administered continuously for as long as necessary to a patient having or susceptible to having Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. Table 2 sets forth illustrative daily dosing regimens for 3-[5-(2-fluoro-phenyl)-[1,2,4]oxadiazol-3-yl]-benzoic acid or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate or hydrate thereof wherein administration occurs three times per day at 6-, 6-, and 12-hour intervals (e.g., -7:00 AM, -1:00 PM
and -7:00 PM) with food. In a particular embodiment, the patient is administered 3-[5-(2-fluoro-phenyl)-[1,2,4]oxadiazol-3-yl]-benzoic acid or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate or hydrate thereof in one of the dosing regimens set forth in Table 2 continuously for 28 days. In certain embodiments, a single daily dosing regimen set forth in Table 2 is followed each day. In other embodiments, different dosing regimens set forth in Table 2 can be followed on different days. In certain embodiments, the drug is provided as a sachet. In these embodiments, the appropriate amount of the drug can be weighed or measured and combined with an appropriate pharmaceutically acceptable solvent prior to administration.

Patients ingest the drug by filling each bottle with the required amount of water or other pharmaceutically acceptable solvent, capping and shaking each bottle for about 60 seconds, withdrawing the appropriate amount of volume from the bottle using an oral dosing syringe and ingesting the contents directly from the dosing syringe. The entire calculated volume of reconstituted drug corresponding to the dose is to be talcen at one time. After ingestion of the drug, the dosing syringe should be filled with the same volume of water or other pharmaceutically acceptable solvent as the dose volume, and should be ingested by the patient. This rinse procedure should be carried out once.
[00100] Efficacy of treatment can be determined by measuring the change from a baseline measurement of dystrophin levels in a biopsy of the foot muscle extensor digitorum brevis (EDB).

5.7 Example 7: Transepithelial Potential Difference (TEPD) Assay [00106] The measurement of transepithelial potential difference (TEPD), also known as nasal potential difference, provides a sensitive evaluation of sodium and chloride transport directly in secretory epithelial cells via assessment of transepithelial bioelectric properties (Knowles et al., 1981, N. Engl. J. Med. 305(25):1489-95; Knowles et al., 1995, Hunz. Gene Ther. 6:445). TEPD is performed in each nostril using standardized techniques (Standaert et al., 2004, Ped. Pulm. 37:385-92). In the procedure, a small plastic catheter is used to assess electrical differences across the outer cell membrane of nasal mucosa cells in the nostril.
TEPD values are expressed in millivolts, or mV. A chloride conductance equal to or more electrically negative than -5.0 mV is generally considered to be in the normal range. TEPD
assessments are made on the nasal epithelium cells lining the inferior turbinate because these cells are easier to access than the respiratory epithelial cells lining the lower airways, and have been shown to have the same ion transport characteristics (Knowles et al., 1981, Ain.
Rev. Respir. Dis. 124(4):484-90). TEPD assessments can also be made on rectal epithelial cells and lower respiratory epithelial cells. Because of the role of the CFTR
protein in transporting chloride ions across cell membranes, and because of the absence of this protein, cystic fibrosis patients have an abnormal TEPD chloride conductance. As an endpoint, TEPD has the advantage that it can detect chloride transport changes that are a quantitative integration of the presence, functional activity, and apical location of the CFTR in airway cells. Furthermore, it is a direct measure of CFTR activity that is not likely to be affected by supportive or palliative treatments for CF (with the possible exception of systemically administered aminoglycoside antibiotics). Of importance is evidence that TEPD
values can correlate with the degree of pulmonary dysfunction and radiographic abnormality (Ho et al., 1997, Eur. Respir. J. 10(9):2018-22; Fajac et al., 1998, Eur. Respir. J
12(6):1295-300;
Sermet-Gaudelus et al., 2005, Am. J. Respit. Crit. Care Med. 171(9):1026-1031). In particular, TEPD assessment of isoproterenol-induced CFTR chloride activity has demonstrated better predictive value than genotype in determining FEV 1 and radiological score (Ho et al., 1997, Eur Respir J 10(9):2018-22). Under baseline conditions, TEPD-assessed chloride channel activity is very unlikely to normalize spontaneously in patients with CF; any observed improvements in TEPD-assessed chloride channel activity are expected to specifically denote pharmacological activity of CFTR-correcting therapies.
Accordingly, it has become the primary endpoint in Phase 1-2 pharmacological and gene replacement studies aimed at correcting CFTR dysfunction (Peclcham et al., 1995, AJ. Clin Sci (London). 89(3):277-84; Wilschanski et al., 2003, N. Engl. J. Med.
349(15):1433-41).
5.8 Example 8: CFTR Immunofluorescence [00107] The collection and processing of the nasal mucosal curettage from each nostril of a patient for measurement of CFTR protein by immunofluorescence and by quantification of CFTR mRNA is performed using standardized techniques (Clancy et al., 2001,4m. J.
Respir. Crit. Care Med. 163(7):1683-92; Amaral et al., 2004, J. Cyst. Fibros.
3 Suppl 2:17-23). The immunofluorescence staining of normal epithelial cells (for example, from nasal mucosal scrapings) reveals the presence of most of the CFTR protein at the apical surface. In animal models of nonsense-mutation-mediated CF or in patients with nonsense-mutation-mediated CF, CFTR staining is absent (e.g., in patients homozygous for a premature stop mutation) or is primarily observed in the perinuclear region (e.g., in patients with a AF508 mutation that prevents normal CFTR intracellular trafficking). Successful production of functional wild or non-wild type CFTR protein in both animal models and patients has been associated with reappearance of apical epithelial CFTR protein as assessed by iinmunofluorescence (Clancy et al., 2001,,4m. J. Respir. Crit. Care Med.
163(7):1683-92;
Wilschanski et al., 2003,1V. Engl. J Med. 349(15):1433-41).
5.9 Example 9: Pulmonary Function Tests [00108] Pulmonary function tests, including FEVi, FVC, and MEF25a5, are measured using standard spirometry procedures. Assessments of pulmonary function (including MEF25-75, FVC, and, particularly, FEVi) have been acknowledged as definitive clinical endpoints in patients with CF (Food and Drug Administration, 62nd Anti-Infective Drugs Advisory Committee. Discussion of NDA for tobramycin solution for inhalation (Tobi ) for the management of cystic fibrosis patients. November, 1997; Tiddens, 2002, Pediatr.
Pulmonol. 34(3): 228-31). FEVi and otlier pulmonary function testing measures have been shown to correlate with disease severity, predict morbidity in tenns of health care utilization and IV antibiotic usage, and indicate the risk of CF-related mortality (Food and Drug Administration, 62nd Anti-Infective Drugs Advisory Committee. Discussion of NDA for tobramycin solution for inhalation (Tobi ) for the management of cystic fibrosis patients. November, 1997). Pulmonary function testing is simple to administer (even in patients as young as 7 years of age), and uses standardized equipment and techniques that are widely available. Interpretation is performed using well-established nomlative equations that account for patient age, height, and gender. Improvement in FEV i has been aclcnowledged as quantitatively demonstrating meaningful clinical benefit in CF, and has served as the basis for regulatory approval of dornase alfa and inhaled tobramycin (Food and Drug Administration, 62nd Anti-Infective Drugs Advisory Committee. Discussion of NDA for tobramycin solution for inhalation (Tobi(M) for the management of cystic fibrosis patients. November, 1997).

[00142] 3-[5-(2-Fluoro-phenyl)-[1,2,4]oxadiazol-3-yl]-benzoic acid was provided in a formulation described herein. 15 patients (12 from a Phase 2 trial being conducted in Israel and 3 from a Phase 2 trial being conducted in the United States; seven patients were male and 8 were female; patients had a median age of 22 years; and all patients had multiple signs and symptoms of cystic fibrosis, including some degree of lung dysfunction) were orally administered 3-[5-(2-fluoro-phenyl)-[1,2,4]oxadiazol-3-yl]-benzoic acid according to the following 56 day schedule: administration of 3-[5-(2-fluoro-phenyl)-[1,2,4]oxadiazol-3-yl]-benzoic acid three times per day (TID) at 4 mg/lcg, 4 mg/lcg and 8 mg/1cg for 14 days, followed by no treatment for 14 days (Cycle 1, consisting of 28 days), followed by administration of 3-[5-(2-fluoro-phenyl)-[1,2,4]oxadiazol-3-yl]-benzoic acid three times per day (TID) at 10 mg/lcg, 10 mg/kg and 20 mg/lcg for 14 days, followed by no treatment for 14 days (Cycle 2, consisting of 28 days).
[00143] Clinical endpoints were evaluated using the procedures set forth above. TEPD
measurements were made prior to treatment and on days 14 and 28 of Cycle 1 and Cycle 2.
Nasal mucosal curettage was collected from each nostril of each patient prior to treatment and on days 14 and 28 of Cycle 1 and Cycle 2. Pulmonary tests, including FEV 1, FVC and MEF25_75, were measured prior to treatment, on day -1 of Cycle 2, on day 13 or 14 of Cycle 1 and day 13 or 14 of Cycle 2 in the study being conducted in Israel and the same parameters were measured prior to treatment and on day 13 or 14 of Cycle 2 in the study being conducted in the United States.
[00144] Mean change in TEPD chloride conductance. This is the average of the changes from the beginning to the end of the treatment period in TEPD chloride conductance within each study participant. For example, if the changes in TEPD chloride conductance within each of three participants were -7.0 mV, -2.0 mV and -9.0 mV, the mean change in TEPD chloride conductance among these participants would be -6.0 mV.
[00145] Percentage ofpatients with a chloride conductance response. This is the percentage of patients who demonstrated a TEPD chloride conductance response at the end of treatment with 3-[5-(2-fluoro-phenyl)-[1,2,4]oxadiazol-3-yl]-benzoic acid. For purposes of the trials, a chloride conductance response is defined as a TEPD chloride conductance improvement of at least -5 mV. For example, in a patient with a TEPD chloride conductance value of +1.0 mV at baseline and a TEPD chloride conductance value of -6.0 mV
at the end of treatment, the TEPD chloride conductance improvement would be -7.0 mV, representing a chloride conductance response.
[00146] Percentage ofpatients with improvements of TEPD chloride conductance values into the normal range. As noted above, a chloride conductance equal to or more electrically negative than -5.0 mV is generally considered to be in the normal range. As such, a patient with a TEPD chloride conductance value of +1.0 mV at baseline would be considered to have an abnormal value because the value is more electrically positive than -5.0 mV. If, at the end of treatment, that patient's TEPD chloride conductance value improved to -6.0 mV, this would represent an improvement into the normal range because the improved value is more electrically negative than -5.0 mV.
[00147] Based on patient gender, age and height, the mean FEV1 value at study entry was 66% of normal and the mean FVC value at study entry was 80% of normal.
Fourteen of the 15 patients included in the analysis had airway colonization with Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a common bacterial infection in cystic fibrosis patients that can lead to serious pneumonia. Fourteen of the 15 patients also had pancreatic insufficiency and required chronic pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy. Patients had low body weights, with a mean weight of 58.3 kg at study entry.
[00148] Table 5 presents the TEPD results for the 5 patients. For each measurement, the results are presented on a best-of-nostrils and mean-of-both-nostrils basis. Historically, results of TEPD tests have typically been presented on a best-of-nostrils basis. However, recent guidelines established by the Cystic Fibrosis Therapeutics Development Network recommend that TEPD results be presented on botli bases. Improvements in TEPD
chloride conductance in patients with different types of nonsense mutations within the CFTR gene were noted.

chloride conductance. Statistically significant results and positive trends for secondary endpoints were also observed. In particular, although the trials were not been powered to detect statistical significant changes in secondary endpoints, statistically significant iinprovements from study entry to the end of the higher-dose treatment cycle in the patients' mean FEV1a FVC and weight were observed. Table 6 presents the results. For the changes in lung function, one patient was not included because that patient did not have lung function measured at the end of the higher-dose treatment cycle.

In the 15 patients included in the interim analysis, 6 reported general improvements in well being, 6 reported decrease in cough and 10 reported decreased mucus thickness and easier clearing of mucus.
5.11 Example 11: Dystrophin, Sarcoglycan, and Dystroglycan Expression by Immunofluorescence and Western Blottin~
[00151] Biopsy of the EDB muscle and overlying skin from one foot is performed under local anesthesia and conscious sedation (in some cases, general anesthesia may be required) prior to treatment, and from the other foot on the last day of treatment. The biopsy procedure is performed using standardized techniques (Stedman, 2000, Human Gene Therapy 11:777-90). The entire muscle belly (whenever possible) is removed in the procedure. At the time of collection of the biopsy prior to treatment, the muscle specimen is divided into at least 3 fragments and the biopsy specimen collected on the last day of treatment is divided into at least 2 fragments. The biopsy specimen is placed on a telfa gauze sponge moistened with Ringer's saline. The biopsy specimen is viewed at low power under a stereo dissection microscope to establish fiber orientation. The muscle is then transected using a sharp scalpel in a cross sectional fashion (perpendicular to the orientation of the fibers) whenever possible and allowed to rest for 2 minutes to allow for the cessation of spasm. The sample is then frozen in liquid nitrogen cooled isopentane, transferred to a liquid nitrogen reservoir and held 1 inch above the liquid/vapor interface for 2 minutes of slow cooling and isopentane evaporation before immersion in the liquid nitrogen, and wrapped into precooled (in liquid nitrogen and stored on dry ice) foil labeled with the study number, site number, patient number, date, patient initials, and foot side (right foot or left foot).
[00152] All sample containers are clearly labeled in a fashion that identifies the subject and the collection date. Labels are fixed to the sample containers in a manner that prevents the label from becoming detached. Samples are shipped for analysis/culture/central review immediately after the procedure is performed. For detection of dystrophin, 3 commercially available antibodies that recognize the C-terminus, the N-terminus, and the rod domain of the protein are employed. For detection of the sarcoglycan and dystroglycan complex, commercially available antibodies against a-, (3-, y-, and S-sarcoglycan, and (3-dystroglycan are used when possible. Epifluorescence microscopy is used in the analysis;
images are captured by CCD camera, after normalization of the fluorescence intensity against a normal muscle specimen. Images are stored digitally and preserved for future review, and final evaluation at the completion of the study. Tissues are also processed for detection of dystrophin, the sarcoglycans, and (3-dystroglycan by Western blotting using the same antibodies. Microscopic images are captured and preserved for future review, and for final evaluation at the completion of the study. Remaining muscle tissue samples are preserved for confirmatory assays of mRNA and proteins involved in DMD. Immunostaining and Western blotting are employed for protein detection.
[00153] Muscle biopsies are commonly performed on DMD subjects as a component of diagnosis and as measures of therapeutic effect in the context of research studies. EDB
has been chosen because it is not an essential muscle for daily activities and therefore sampling this muscle does not have adverse functional consequence for the subject. Because it is little used, the EDB muscle is unlikely to demonstrate substantial fibrotic replacement of muscle and thus provides an appropriate tissue for detection of dystrophin production.
Sampling of the EDB muscle offers additional practical advantages because it is easy to identify, can be dissected under local anesthesia, and provides sufficient amounts of tissue to carry out the required analyses. Immunofluorescence and Western blotting are routine tests performed on muscle biopsy specimens to confirm the presence or absence of full-length dystrophin. An absence of dystrophin is viewed as confirmation of the diagnosis of DMD.
Restoration of dystrophin, with localization to the muscle membrane, has been considered a direct measure of preclinical and clinical pharmacodynamic activity (Barton-Davis, 1999, J, Clin. Invest. 104(4):375-81; Politano, 2003, Acta Myol. 22(1):15-21).
5.12 Example 12: Upper and Lower Extremity Myometry [00154] Upper and lower extremity myometry are performed using a hand-held myometer following standardized procedures (Beenaldcer, 2001, Neuromuscul.
Disord.
11(5):441-6; Hyde, 2001, Neuromuscul. Disord. 11(2):165-70). It is recommended (depending on the subject's baseline functional status) that evaluated muscle groups include hip abductors, knee extensors, elbow flexors and extensors, and hand grip.
Bilateral assessments can be done, and three measurements can be recorded from each muscle group on each side. These parameters are monitored prior to treatment, on the second to last day of treatment, and during a follow-up period after treatment. During the pre-treatment and treatment periods, the myometry procedures are performed prior to the muscle biopsy.
[00155] Myometry assessments using a hand-held dynamometer are a sensitive and reproducible measure of muscle strength in ambulatory and non-ambulatory subjects (Beenakker, 2001, Neuromuscul. Disord. 11(5):441-6; Hyde, 2001, Neuromuscul.
Disor d.
11(2):165-70). Inter-rater reliability in subjects with muscular dystrophy is high (Stuberg, 1988, Phys. Ther. 1988 68(6):977-82; Hyde, 2001, Neuromuscul. Disord.
11(2):165-70). As compared to manual muscle strength testing, myometry is a more sensitive and less complex measure of muscle function (McDonald, 1995, Am. J. Phys. Med. Rehabil. (5 Suppl):S70-92).
The test can be readily administered by the evaluator (e.g., physician or physical therapist).
5.13 Example 13: Timed Function Tests [00156] Timed function tests include time taken to stand from a supine position, time taken to walk 10 meters, and time taken to climb 4 standard-sized stairs (Mendell, 1989, N.
Engl. J. Med. 320(24):1592- 7; Griggs, 1991, Arch. Neurol. 48(4):383-8). These parameters are monitored prior to treatment, on the second to last day of treatment, and during a follow-up period after treatment. During the pre-treatment and treatment periods, the timed function tests are performed prior to the inuscle biopsy.
[00157] These tests (time taken to stand from supine position, time taken to walk 10 meters, and time taken to climb 4 standard-sized steps) provide an additional measure of functional capability in ambulatory subjects. The tests are reproducible, commonly employed, simple to administer, and have documented response to therapeutic intervention with steroids (Mendell, 1989, N. Engl. J. Med. 320(24):1592- 7; Griggs, 1991, Arch. Neurol.
48(4):383-8).
5.14 Example 14: Serum CK Levels [00158] Serum CK activity is assessed using a commercially available NADH-linked kinetic assay (Diagnostic Chemicals Ltd., Oxford, CT). Serum CK levels are measured prior to treatment, on day 1(prior to first dose), day 7, day 14, day 21, and day 27 during the treatment period, and on day 42 and day 56 after treatment. Serum CK is increased in Duchenne muscular dystrophy and therefore is a readily measurable diagnostic marker for the disease and may serve as a potential biomarlcer for the pharmacological activity of the drug (Mendell et al., 1989, New Eng. J. Med. 320(24):1592-1597).
[00159] Serum CK provides a measure of whole-body muscle integrity.
Concentrations of this enzyme in the serum are increased 50- to 100-fold in subjects with DMD and measurements of its levels are used in making an early diagnosis of the disease (Worton, The muscular dystrophies, In: Scriver C.R. , Beaudet A.L., Sly W.S., Valle D, eds.
The metabolic and molecular basis of inherited disease. 8th ed. Vol. 4. New York: McGraw-Hill, 2001:5493-523). The levels of serum CK are measured to monitor the progression of the disease and serve as a marker for muscle dainage. While exercise-induced changes introduce variability (Politano, 2003, Acta. Myol. 22(1):15-21), the marker has advantages because it can be easily, repeatedly, and frequently assessed with a widely available and reliable assay.
Prior clinical studies have shown decreases in serum CK coincident with improvements in muscle strength during treatment with steroids (Reitter, 1995, Brain Dev. 17 Suppl: 3 9-43).
5.15 Example 15: Dermal Fibroblast and Muscle Cell Culture [00160] Studies are performed on muscle tissue and skin from patients to determine whether dystrophin production in primary muscle cultures from the patients corresponds with dystrophin production in vivo. These experiments evaluate whether dermal fibroblasts from patients, wlien differentiated into muscle cells in vitro by transfection with a Myo-D-producing expression construct (Wang, 2001, Development 128: 4623-33), demonstrate dystrophin production in response to treatment. Correlations of skin cell response with clinical activity may offer an easy-to-obtain predictive test in selecting future patients for therapy or for screening new agents for the treatment of DMD. Cells are cultured as follows.
Biopsy material is stored during transport in human proliferation medium (or PBS), and on ice for longer time periods if necessary. If the tissue is not prepared within 24 hours, the material can be frozen in lzuman proliferation medium containing 10% DMSO and stored in liquid nitrogen (or dry ice). At the time the tissue is to be prepared for setting up the myoblast culture, biopsy material is washed in PBS. PBS sufficient to keep the tissue moist is added into a culture dish. The biopsy material is minced thoroughly with razor blades, toward an almost homogeneous supension. Approximately 2 ml of collegenase/dispase/CaC12 solution per gram of tissue is added and mincing is continued for several minutes (e.g. for a muscle biopsy of 5x5x5mm use 1 ml of enzyme solution). The suspension is transferred into a sterile tube and incubated at 37 C in a waterbath until the mixture is a fine slurry (e.g., about 20 to 30 minutes). The suspension is further homogenized by pipetting up and down several times during incubation. Additional resuspension cycles by pipetting up an down with a syringe can be performed if necessary. Eight mL of human proliferation medium is added to the suspension and mixed. The mixture is centrifuged for 10 minutes at 1200 rpm.
The cell pellet is resuspended in 3 ml human proliferation medium. Cells are plated into one well of a collagen-coated 6-wells plate, or, depending on the amount of material, in a T25 collagen-coated flask. Cells are cultured for 48 hrs, at 37 C and 5% COZ. Non-attached cells are removed and transfered to another collagen-coated well (as baclcup). Fresh proliferation medium is added to the first well (3 ml). The cells are cultured from the first well to confluency and until two confluent T75- flasks have been obtained. For storage, cells can be frozed from one T75 flask into 4 cryotubes witli 1 ml freezing medium. The myogenic cell content of the culture is determined by performing a desmin-staining.
Preplating of the cultures is required if the percentage of desmin-positive cells is too low.

[00188] 3-[5-(2-Fluoro-phenyl)-[1,2,4]oxadiazol-3-yl]-benzoic acid is provided in a formulation described herein. Treatment is administered over 28 days for each treatment cohort. An initial cohort of patients are treated daily for 28 days with 3-[5-(2-fluoro-phenyl)-[1,2,4]oxadiazol-3-yl]-benzoic acid at a given dose level (e.g., 4-, 4-, and 8-mg/kg) TID. If the initial patients tolerate the drug, then a second cohort of patients receives 3-[5-(2-fluoro-phenyl)-[1,2,4]oxadiazol-3-yl]-benzoic acid at a higher dose level (e.g., 10-, 10-, and 20-mg/lcg) TID. Thus, each patient receives a total of 84 doses of 3-[5-(2-fluoro-phenyl)-[1,2,4]oxadiazol-3-yl]-benzoic acid. After the end of 28 days of treatment, each patient is followed for an additional 28 days without treatment.
[00189] At each dose level, it is recommended that 3-[5-(2-fluoro-phenyl)-[1,2,4]oxadiazol-3-yl]-benzoic acid be taken TID at 6-, 6-, and 12-hour (:L -30 minutes) intervals. Ideally each dose is taken within -30 minutes after a meal (e.g., -7:00 AM after breakfast, -1:00 PM after lunch, and -7:00 PM after dinner). While it is realized that variations in dosing schedule may occur in the outpatient setting, it is recommended that the prescribed regimen (including dosing intervals and the relationship of dosing to meals) be followed closely on the days of PK sample collection. Clinical endpoints are evaluated using the procedures set forth above.
